The installation Terminal by Karolina Halatek will be opened within the framework of the light art festival ASCENTS that takes place from September 17 to October 9 in the Kulturregion Stuttgart.
Bright light streams from the tunnel-like immersive installation on Gerlingen’s busy Rathausplatz. With the work Terminal, Polish artist Karolina Halatek invites passers-by to take a moment to walk into a dazzling space of bright white light. Encircled by illumination, the visitors are given a chance to step out of what is known and mundane, to a new unexpected dimension of light. Pure structure transforms the perception of time and space and provides an opportunity for the audience to contemplate and focus on their own sense of self. The »Terminal« can be described as a passage, a process, yet a void filled by light.
